The diff of Hyper-V driver with my patched vanilla 3.2 and 3.4 is nonexisting now.
So far I kept running vanilla 3.2.11 + linux-next (all) patches that whent up in mainline and things seem to work. I'd like to help getting the patches in right shape - if possible. (or point me to the site I'd need to read) Does Debian prefer "1 patch per upstream" commit or have one big patch per driver/file? Additionally: There is one issue that was raised by MS people towards Ubuntu - where we are attained too: ata_pIIx doesn't defer to the (much faster) paravirt storage driver when Debian is run on Hyper-V, or worse, we can lose the root file system when drivers switch between storvsc and ata_piix. As we can't use modprobe rules (as done on RHEL for this), Andy Whitcroft has come up with a patch for Ubuntu's 3.2-based kernel that solves the problem and does the job on Wheezys' kernel too.* Looking forward and thanks for your time! - Mathieu * http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-precise.git;a=commitdiff;h=a896e46ae52619bf4f34cdb342c2862071f5c25c;hp=720dab378e884a99b6d8aed51f7eb1615d10549e (MS' Mike Sterling agreed in community forums that this patch isn't likely to go upstream as such...) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
